Rugs Kristiina Lassus Collection | 2023

Designer: Kristina Lassus, Kristina Lassus Studio, Milan (MI), Italy
Manufacturer: Kristiina Lassus, Milan (MI), Italy

The timeless rug collection has been created for high-end customers who appreciate quality, authenticity and individuality. The rugs are hand-knotted in Nepal, using traditional Tibetan handicraft techniques and numerous other manual processes which request about 3- 4 months of production time for each item, and that results in a unique and authentic piece.

The collection consists of 21 designs and 85 SKUs and has been developed to furnish contemporary spaces, both modern and classic, and offers an alternative to oriental rugs. The rugs match well with different interior styles: minimalist/vintage/bohemian/classic. It is a line that stands out on the market for its uniqueness, coherence and elegance.

The rugs are made in 100 knots/sq inch quality - some in 80 knots - and with low pile. The materials employed are Tibetan wool, natural linen, silk, bamboo silk and hemp. Hand-knotted rugs are of superior quality than those generally offered on the market and are made to last for decades.

Being entirely made by hand the rugs request about 16 weeks for delivery. The production is made to order which makes customizations possible (size, quality, color). The collection was first introduced to the market in 2007 and has since then been granted varbeen recognition with the Red Dot Design Awards, Good Design Awards and Green Good Design Awards.
